That's right. The authors of Scripture were "consigned to writing everything and only those things which He (God) wanted."

There it is in black and white in your own post, and somehow Roman Catholics still miss it.

Astounding.

I was trying to show why Wagglebee (?) wrote “God did not say it St. Paul wrote it (I think that was the phrase) You took that to mean we deny the inspiration of the Scripture. We take it to mean that human agency had a part in the writing of the Scripture. That St. Paul did not lack free will while under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. I admit she phrased it badly but it was not to show that St. Paul’s writings are not inspired.

Astounding that Catholics miss what isn't there? Good thing we didn't miss what is there as you have so obviously done;

In keeping with the Lord's command, the Gospel was handed by the apostles by the spoken word of their preaching, by the example they gave, by the institutions they established, what they themselves had received - whether from the lips of Christ, from his way of life and his works, or whether they had learned it at the prompting of the Holy Spirit In order that the full and living Gospel might always be preserved in the Church the apostles left bishops as their successors. They gave them their own position of teaching authority. Indeed, the apostolic preaching, which is expressed in a special way in the inspired books, was to be preserved in a continuous line of succession until the end of time. This living transmission, accomplished in the Holy Spirit, is called Tradition.
